ORIGINAL POSTERI am coming to Thailand in December for six weeks. Do I need to apply for a visa . TIA
TLDR : Answer Summary
To visit Thailand for six weeks in December, whether a visa is needed depends on your home country. Many Western countries, including the UK, allow travelers to enter Thailand visa-free for up to 60 days. Upon arrival, you will receive a stamp in your passport that grants you this 60-day period. It's advisable to check the official Thai visa regulations related to your nationality to confirm.

Google and official Thai websites explaining the matter clearly are a great invention. First you do your initial research and the hard work and then you come to a forum to clear up any unclear details. That's how it works

ORIGINAL POSTERThank you
@Re**
my research suggested 60 days but 30 days kept popping up and needing to extend via embassy. I just wanted to be 100% sure and now I am with all the helpful info and links. 🙏Reply to

It's a game. We have to guess what passport they are on.

If you have a English passport then you will be fine to just come, they will give you the 60 day
Steve *********
Depends on your home country. Most Western countries get 60 days without having to apply for anything.
Aaron ********
No
Jan ******************
If your native language also is English, you can enter on a 60 days visa exemption and get a free stamp upon entry.

@Jan *****************
Please clarify why a visa is issued with English as a native language.Jan ******************
@Javier **********
A visa it’s not issued if your native language is English, but maybe more correct to say that the majority of the official English speaking countries are entitled to visa exemption.Reply to
